Open Quote My niece attended this school and she is one of the smartest kids around town. She loves her teachers and still talks about them. I like the calm
school atmosphere and hallways. Love the
Motivational quotes on the hallway wall. I like their laptop computers for all the kids. The kids did a performance where they taught us Spanish
words and Sign Language, made fruit and
vegetable juices for the audience. The kids are pretty smart. Close Quote

Open Quote Excellent school with dedicated educators. Also students’ high performance in both ELA and Math speaks volumes for this school. The students of PS 25 out performed the district, city and state in both ELA and Math. The school provides various activities for students during and after school. In addition to core subjects the school has a full time art, music and computer teachers. The administration and the educators put children’s social, emotional and educational needs first. Awesome school!!! Close Quote

Open Quote P.S.25 is amazing! It has the best education structure out of the whole district 16 and the best Math and English SCORE. Lets talk about some of there programs. Like Technology and Spanish Program. Second thru Fifth grade is learning Spanish just incredible. I was really impressed with the Sign Language class the teacher taught me how to say I love you. That was pretty cool. I really enjoyed the hands on activity like sip and paint, drumming class and activity works. I was so impressed with Tutoring program because it helps all the students and equipped them with laptops and tablets. I enjoyed the art gallery a lot. Thanks to my family member Ms. Griffin for introducing me to P.S. 25. Close Quote
